Remember to configure CmsAdmins in Episerver 6

Tried to reach the search settings admin view but didn't get access. Snooping around led me to a new Episerver 6 group name setting.

Found that the SearchController in the new Shell.UI has a [Authorize(Roles="CmsAdmins")] attribute. So you need to remember to configure mappings for your admin (and editor) groups inside virtualRoles in episerver.config:

<add name="CmsAdmins" type="EPiServer.Security.MappedRole, EPiServer"
  roles="WebAdmins, Administrators" mode="Any" />
<add name="CmsEditors" type="EPiServer.Security.MappedRole, EPiServer"
  roles="WebEditors" mode="Any" />
